HEALTH IS WRONG FORUM FOR CHINA-TAIWAN ISSUE
REF: STATE 67444
(SBU) We delivered reftel points to Irena Skardzuviene, Head
of the MFA's United Nations and Council of Europe Division,
on May 21. She said the GOL agrees that the World
Organization for Animal Health is not the proper forum for
addressing Chinese-Taiwanese relations. She had no
substantive response to our query about whether Lithuania
would press the OIE Secretariat for postponement of the vote
on the PRC resolution.
